Beginners’ Tip: Distressing Techniques
By Laurie Smith |
Distressing elements
on your page are simple and can have a huge impact on the look.
Here are a few ways to distress |
| Instructions
|
| 1. |
Sanding the edges of stickers, cardstock
(especially white core paper) and photos. |
| 2. |
Tearing photos and cardstock- can also ink torn edges |
| 3. |
Crumble paper up to really wrinkle then ink over top |
| 4. |
Distress edges with edge tool |
| 5. |
Ink the edges of your paper-with or with out tearing
first. |
Any types of ink
are fine, but remember to let it dry before placing your item
down on your page so the ink doesn’t smear your paper. The
Distressed Ink and Chalk ink work nicely. |
